British Nurse Arrested for Alleged Sexual Affair With Convicted Rapist

A nurse in Great Britain has been arrested over claims she had a four-month fling with a violent rapist who was being held in a mental health ward at a British hospital.

Rhoda Makambaire, who is married with a child, was accused of having sex sessions with brutal Kelly Edney, 29. They allegedly had relations in the Berkshire, U.K., hospital's mental health ward - a section for patients who are deemed incurable or show no signs of remorse.

The rapist, who also has convictions for arson, assault and hoax bomb calls, allegedly told cops in explicit detail about his affair with Makambaire.

Another nurse was also arrested. She is accused of keeping watch as Edney and the mother of one had sex.

The nurses, both in their 30s, were questioned by cops under Britain's Sexual Offenses Act. They were suspended along with a third nurse who allegedly knew about the affair.

Edney was yesterday moved from Broadmoor to top-security Rampton hospital, in Notts, U.K.
